Over the last 25 years I have read every weight loss book on the market and they have all promised instant weight loss, usually doing one thing. This thing could be juicing, shakes, walking, a particular diet, a particular exercise - the list goes on. But the real truth is that it is not one thing, but many!
The main reason for a weight problem is that your subconscious wants to hold extra weight and until you crack this you may lose the weight but you will put it back on. You see in the press all the time that people have lost 100 lbs only to put it back and more in three months - usually going back to their old eating habits are blamed. This is not true because as anybody knows who has lost a lot of weight you wouldnt put it back on and how could it possibly go back on so quickly - people take years to put on 100 lb! It is because your subconscious has realised you are slim and the old traumas, patterns, ancestral reasons kick in big time and even if you are still being careful the weight will go on. In my case my subconscious knew I would just starve so it filled me with water which I couldnt lose whatever I did.
Yes you need to cut your calories and do exercise but this has to be the best one for you. This is based on what you like, what your body type is and and what your body wants - I use muscle testing for this as everybody is different and my book teaches you how to muscle test so you can find out what suits you. I have know loads of people lose a lot of weight without exercising. I know a lot of slim people who overeat, emotionally eat, have cravings, eat junk food and they dont put on weight - so there must be more reasons. I used to do over three hours exercise a day and it made no difference! I got thrown out of Weight Watchers and Slimming World for putting on weight because my metabolism is too slow and I have to eat very little in small quantities.
Allergies and intolerances need to be eliminated so get an intolerance test done. You can get a voucher on Groupon and start to keep a food diary as you can see when something upsets you. Also please remember that when you combine foods they can cause water retention or problems - hence the food diary.
Nutrition is very important so you will most probably need to take supplements. Breathing is very important to get rid of the toxins and to speed up the metabolism. If you have a low thyroid it is almost impossible to lose weight. My book explains in great detail what you have to do, buy and if packed full of techniques and advice. You most probably will need an appetite suppressant or learn how to use Emotional Freedom Technique (tapping) to release the traumas, low self esteem or other reasons why you cant lose weight - this information is all in my book.
My books is written from over 25 years of experience from myself and my clients. It is backed up by research and science and is full of funny personal antedotes!! I would suggest buying the paperback as it is a book that you will be dipping into over the next few years.

Why does your subconscious use weight as protection?
please contact me on ann@annparker.co.uk
So I am now fully recovered from my hip operation and feel like a million dollars! As I was ill on holiday and had an allergic reaction to some antibiotics I have also lost some more weight and was feeling really good about myself. So I started to wear tighter fitting clothes, makeup and jewellry and I was getting loads of compliments!! So what happened - suddenly I went from not eating to uncontrollably eating everything in sight - horror shock horror. I never do this and it makes me feel out of control, a pig and that I will put back all my weight.
So after a day when I realised I could do something to stop this, I did a session on myself and guess what I found? My subconscious had gone into panic mode, didnt feel safe and was trying to pack the weight back on again! I thought I had cleared all of this as I have been working on this for years and managed to get down to a UK size 18 which I was quite happy with - or rather my subconscious was happy with!
When I was three I was sexually abused which first lead to my weight problem. As an adult I lost weight and was very attractive and received masses amount of attention from men. I also had a few date rape episodes ..... I travelled a lot for work and it was so bad that you couldnt even go down for dinner. When I was working in Mexico for two months one day I had 30 hits from men (my colleague and I compared notes every day!). So you can see why I then put the weight back on and why my subconscious went into melt down the minute I started to get compliments.
I am still working through this as safety is a very strong survival issue and the subconscious takes some healing to release it. But now I am hopeful that I will get down to a 16.
You see weight is very rarely to do with food but the underlying reasons why your subconscious wants to eat. You need to heal those before the weight will stay off for good. And even then a situation may trigger a reaction, like this had for me. So if you think this is you, why not contact me for a session or buy my book Unlock Your Maximum Weight Loss Potential on Amazon and find out the root cause of your weight problem.

Dr. Karen Becker from Healthy Pets, who's a leading authority in pet nutrition.
I have been asked to post this article by Dr Karen Becker on pet nutrition. This is so important as so many of the most popular food is full of things we would never feed our pets! As an animal communicator I will always ask the pet what they need, any intolerances, any supplements they need - so you are getting it from the horses mouth - so to speak! If you would like an animal communication session please contact me on ann@annparker.co.uk
However, this is easier said than done. There's a lot of information out there from a lot of different sources (some better than others), and it's easy to get overwhelmed.
We know a lot goes into deciding what to put in your furry friend’s food bowl, so to make things easier, we’ve outlined some important points for you to consider.
Next, it’s important to know which kinds of wholesome foods and supplements you can give your pet. A dietary boost can help get your pal into tip-top shape, depending on his or her nutrition needs.
Then, you also have to decide whether you’d like to feed your dog or cat a kibble, wet food, cooked, or raw diet, based on his or her health and your budget and lifestyle. Yes, there’s a lot to consider!
Crucial Things
To Consider When It Comes To Feeding Your Pet
Loving pet parents
are often concerned about whether they’re making the best feeding decisions for
their dogs and cats. Although the ideal diet is different for each animal, learning some general
information about pet nutrition can help you make healthy choices for your
four-legged family member. However, this is easier said than done. There's a lot of information out there from a lot of different sources (some better than others), and it's easy to get overwhelmed.
We know a lot goes into deciding what to put in your furry friend’s food bowl, so to make things easier, we’ve outlined some important points for you to consider.
Some
Things To Consider ...
For starters, there
are some common mistakes that you should avoid, like overfeeding your pet,
getting store-bought food full of filler ingredients, and underestimating the
importance of a balanced diet. All these factors can potentially lead to health
issues down the road. Next, it’s important to know which kinds of wholesome foods and supplements you can give your pet. A dietary boost can help get your pal into tip-top shape, depending on his or her nutrition needs.
Then, you also have to decide whether you’d like to feed your dog or cat a kibble, wet food, cooked, or raw diet, based on his or her health and your budget and lifestyle. Yes, there’s a lot to consider!
While this may seem
overwhelming, the good news is, small changes can make a big difference.
For instance, switching out high-calorie, processed treats for wholesome, homemade goodies can help animals reach or maintain a healthy weight.
Certain pet-safe whole foods like banana slices, carrots, plain cooked chicken, and eggs can even offer a nutritional boost. And while these foods will supplement the diet with extra vitamins and minerals, your pal will just think he or she is getting a yummy snack!
Nutrition: The Foundation Of HealthFor instance, switching out high-calorie, processed treats for wholesome, homemade goodies can help animals reach or maintain a healthy weight.

Just like with
humans, our pets’ health begins with proper nutrition. The big difference,
though, is that they depend on us to make their eating decisions for them!
The good news is, you don’t have to be an expert to be a wonderful pet parent, but you do have to have a little background knowledge about animal nutrition and health. That includes getting expert guidance from veterinarians and nutritionists to help you learn how to best care for your pal.
But while their help is crucial, at the end of the day, the choices you make for your four-legged friend are ultimately up to you. So, listen to the advice of trusted professionals, do some research, and use your best judgment. After all, no one knows your pet quite as well as you!

Why do you eat emotionally?
please contact me at ann@annparker.co.uk

1. Hormones - you know that at a certain time of the month your eating can go out of control
2. No money - believe it or not weight is linked to money and the less you have the more you may eat - this is to do with scarcity patterns
3. You have starved in past lives and your body doesnt want that to happen in this one
4. You have had trauma in your life and the eating blocks the pain of having to deal with it
5. You may have very low self esteem and eat to feel better
6. You could be "stuffing" emotions down rather than dealing with them
7. Your body type may require more food
8. and the list goes on ........................
Using EFT can release traumas, past lives, stuck emotions and most other things so this is your first port of call - but of course, you have to do it for it it work! I know of specific points that you can use for appetite suppression to you dont have to use the full routine............

Is your underactive thyroid causing your weight problem?
please contact me on ann@annparker.co.uk
Do you know what your thyroid is? It is a butterfly shaped gland situated in the front of your neck and forms part of your throat chakra. It is usually associated with not being able to speak up for yourself or speak your truth - sound familiar?!
The thyroid basically controls most of your hormone functions including your metabolism. As the estimate now for being underactive is 1 in 5 (especially women) it is not suprising that there is an obesity problem. In the UK the tests are inadequate and can say you are normal when you are not (this has happened to me). That is if the doctor evens picks it up because most always associate being overweight with overeating. Then the medication doesnt help - it may help some but it wont help with weight loss. So you continually put on weight and then cant lose it, despite dieting or starving - also the thyroid will fill you with excess water that you cant lose either.
You need to tune into your thyroid and see what is there. What shape, colour, size, texture and if there are memories, trauma or past life information that needs clearing - then use the techniques in my book to release and replace with self love and confidence. People who have been physically, mentally, emotionally or sexually abuse can have an underactive thyroid. If you are looking at past lives it can be because you were hanged, or other injuries to the throat.
Homeopathy is brilliant for thyroid and so is spirulina. You need to make sure that you are getting the correct vitamins and minerals. Again my book lists everything including what crystals to use to heal your thyroid and speed up your metabolism.
Why not buy my book and use it as your bible to help heal your body and your weight?

Do you use your weight as protection against something?
please contact me at ann@annparker.co.uk
I was 12 lb when I was born and I have struggled with my weight all my life. I have even lived on 150 calories for 7 years and did three hours of exercise a day (which I am now paying for with dodgy hips!). I started to investigate why I couldn't lose weight more deeply and went to visit a therapist who did muscle testing - this means that you ask your body yes or no questions and your body responds as it absolutely knows what it wants. So she asked my body if it wanted to lose weight and it said NO! I was absolutely gobsmacked - but "I do" I said - but your body/subconscious etc doesn't want to! So after I recovered from the shock, I realised that I had been using my weight as protection against something because every time I tuned into me being slim and attractive I felt the most tremendous fear and felt sick.
Being overweight means that you are not attractive to the majority of men (I can tell you that!) but that can be an advantage if you don't want the attention or have been abused. This is what had happened to me. When I was three I was sexually abused by my babysitters son for three years and had only got out of it by being ill and then my father was posted somewhere else so we moved. When I was slim for a few years I was very attractive and attracted a lot of attention from men and as I travelled around the world working it became a real problem as you couldn't even walk along a corridor without somebody trying to hit on you. As you can see by the picture that I was pretty stunning - how I loved my hair like that! So all the fear of the abuse came back and I started to put on weight. As my body knew I would starve until it came off, it flooded me with excess water which I couldn't do anything about.

As my body knew I would starve until it came off, it flooded me with excess water which I couldn't do anything about.
With my clients, I find that this is the no. 1 reason for being overweight and if they lose it they will put it back on immediately. Abuse of any kind does take a lot of healing but it can be done and self esteem, confidence and respect can be restored. You may get the attention but it totally goes over your head because the patterns, blocks, trauma and fears have been cleared so your body/subconscious does not register this as a problem any more.
There is always a payback for everything - it is caused secondary gain. You all know of the woman who looks after their mother and moans all the time but when you say you need to back off they don't. This is because they get attention from other people which they wouldn't get if they stopped doing it. Other reasons that you would use your weight as protection:
1. traumas in past lives - you may not believe in past lives but any type of trauma in your ancestors may cause this fear within you
2. low self esteem/worth so your weight stops you from being promoted, getting a new job, going on holiday or many other reasons
3. you don't want to be seen so you make yourself big - I know this sounds the wrong way around but actually people don't pay any attention to overweight people - unless it is to be rude!
4. self hate - you hate yourself for eating and feel disgust so you eat more. If you loved yourself this wouldn't happen
5. You are carrying heavy burdens/weighted down by your life experience
5. there are so many more reasons that are explained in my book, Unlock your Maximum Weight Loss Potential
But the good news is that all of these issues can be healed and you can lose weight and be happy. Buy my book and watch the weight drop off - why not book an appointment with me so we can explore the real reasons of your weight problem

Boosting your metabolism using EFT
please contact me at ann@annparker.co.uk
To lose weight and keep it off you really need a good metabolism. If you have an underactive thyroid, or are older + a variety of other reasons, your metabolism may be slow and it won't burn off the calories and that equals weight gain - that stays firmly put! The best way I find to boost your metabolism is by using Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT for short). To begin with you will need to do every day but after a couple of months I would suggest once a week for maintenance. EFT is really easy and there are full instructions in my book, Unlock your maximum weight loss potential, so I am not going to list the tapping points in this blog.
How to begin:
1. I would suggest that you sit quietly, close your eyes and ask your soul out of 100% what your metabolism is working at and go with the first number that comes up. If you dont get an answer, guess what you think it might be. Dont go for 100% to begin with, start with 5% above what you are getting and then build up. Ask your soul what may be the reasons and include them in your tapping statements. Again if you get nothing try and guess what they might be or just say metabolism and see what comes up.
2. Using the set up phrase say these three phrases:
"Even thought my metabolism is only working at 80%, I deeply and utterly love and accept myself and my metabolism"
"Even though my metabolism STILL only works at 80%, I deeply and utterly love and accept myself and my metabolism"
"Even though my metabolism STILL only works at 80%, I now CHOOSE that it works at 85% permanently and I am eliminating all the reasons why it is not working efficiently"
3. Using the tapping points you can use the following phrases:
a. I release all the trauma as to why my metabolism doesnt work properly
b. I release all of my stuck emotions etc
c. I release my need for my metabolism to work slowly
d. I release the need for protection which is keeping my weight high
e. I release all my patterns, blocks, fears etc
Do at least three rounds per session and ask every day if the percentage has gone up. Once it has gone up you can then change it to increase by another 5%. This is brilliant and everybody should use EFT - I would also combine it with other weight loss issues like overeating or comfort eating.
